How to change joint property ownership to single ownership.
Stuck in UK. 2nd home in France, unvisited for nearly a year now. House in Joint Names and French Will written (Estates to be managed according to UK Law) and registered via Notaire. So far so good. Now I am suddenly a widower and feel I need some advice on how to proceed to get our/my French house deeds in my name ready for a possible sale. Have meeting with our/my UK Solicitor next week. Could write to the Notaire to ask but my French is too weak and my vocabulary is certainly not strong enough in this area. Can hardly express myself in English at the moment.
